Geology

Geology is the study of Earth, its material composition, and the processes that affect
its surface and interior. Students of geology evaluate the dynamic transformations
that our planet experiences today in order to better understand how it evolved in
the past and will change in the future. A full understanding of these changes provides
a greater appreciation for the relationship between humans and their physical environment.

Admissions Students interested in pursuing a degree in geology should follow the admissions
guidelines pertaining to the Associate of Science degree.

The College of DuPage Earth Science Library/Student Workroom (Room 3617) is located
directly across the corridor from the Geology Lab. It provides students with access
to archival copies of geology journals and texts as well as a physical space to complete
projects and activities outside of scheduled class time.
